Really big thanks from derbyshire and durham members to all that attended croft this weekend.

Show ran like clockwork IMHO...

Loads of track time....
Loads of 0-60 action....
Loads of concours and show cars....

The Rain..

I also hope people liked the relaxed atmosphere...

So Was it the best show of the year.....

For me it was awesome...100% better than national day..

So i am asking which one was the better one for the paying public...

Thanks again to all that attended.

Brilliant weekend, i had a great two days

Saturday i spent on track (Red S2) and apart from some overheating issues it was great! Good relaxed track time and no real incidents

Sunday was just great track spectating for me, with plenty of quality motors on the club stands and in concours

As far as comparing it to National Day goes, all the regional days have been better than National Day this year
Was a top weekend and a big thankyou and well done to Durham, Derby and Croft Circuit

marco polo

iTrader: (1)

i didn't lol

PF Dave

We left Friday lunch time and didn't get home till pretty much Monday - in effect, BUT was well worth it.

Both days ran like clockwork, there was a great atmosphere with EVERYONE helping each other out, loads of great track action and Andrew was kind enough to take me out in his Focus which was an obvious highlight for me.

So thanks to everyone involved especially Dave, Dingy and Andrew Gallacher for the hot laps.

Big pat on the back to the Croft show team... the perfect show to end the UK season!

Marco - I thought it was proper funny when you came beaning down the pit straight when you were out in the rain and overtook Nutter... He hit the gas and the tyres lit up and went sideways..

This followed prompty by you giving him a beep on the horn and a big friendly wave

Spiky

it's all good fun

Fiesta SuperSport

That was funny as fook!



Cant really comment on whether it was better than national day as I didnt go, but it was certainly without a doubt the best RS show I have ever been too, Big up to the Durham and Derbyshire groups for organising a top weekend, I certainly will be making the 540 mile round trip next year to attend

Redkop

Just got back home, Andy, me, Jonno and LouLou stayed at a hotel last night as we didn't fancy the long trip home.

Was a fantastic weekend and an excellent show, that's how a show should be..... well done Derbyshire and Durham

What a top weekend huge thanks to all the Derbyshire and Durham members who made the weekend all that it was.
The organisation requred to ensure this event runs like clock work takes loads of time, effort and commitment.
The atmosphere of the weekend which was relaxed, fun filled and in general, a really enjoyable time is testement to the efforts of all the members of both regional groups. Great team work guys

I arrived Friday night and spent the weekend with the Derby & Durham groups.
What a great bunch of folks who worked non stop from 6am Saturday morning through till late Sunday evening, your effort was noted and very much appreciated

Wouldnt it be great to see more RSOC events organised by other regional groups along similar lines and on a similar scale to Croft in the future?

IMO there is a lot that can be taken from the organisation and running of the Croft show & if applied to other RS events could well see the RSOC in a much stronger position as a club.
That as an RS enthusiast is an exciting prospect and could only be a good thing for everyone thats Passionate about their RS's

robrs2

Best one yet

Dingy, Let me say sorry again for the, errm rant. As you know 4 weeks putting the car together and to be stopped for a bust rev counter
Full marks for getting me sorted.
And again Sorry m8.

I didn't go to national day, so I cant comment on that BUT, it was by far the best show i've been to this year, even tho my club was at worlds end...

I will deffo be going again next year!!!

NMS Badboy^NUTTER^

Awesome weekend, without a doubt the best weekend ever with the Cossie, even beats the Ring trips for me

Gregs

awsome weekend loved every min, the 80+ year old women having passenger rides was didnt think nutter would ever get her out of his car!

Sexy-RS

Was a wicked show - Really good atmosphere had a great time!

I agree with Andy 100%

Dicko&Vacant

iTrader: (3)

best show this year for me also

just a lack of trade stands thats the only thing i can say about it

jacko

only thing that could have been better is the wether and even the high council cant sort that one i had a great week end it was spot on

Micky

Im only got home from the show 2 hour ago!!!But it was well worth the long trek from Ireland.Was very well organised on both days and met Marco,AndyR,Steven RW,the youth,Si B,sketch,Tim,Ollie,Marc LJX among others.All very friendly people who made the day great.A big thanks to all those who helped put the show on,I'll be back next year hopefully.Regards,Micky

Sketch

Excellent show, really enjoyed it!!

Si B and I will be back next year for more of the same

jayjay

mint weekend loved it a big turn out lets hope next year will be as good if not better

righthooker

Was a great day ,but i think the question is Smugg as you know you will get the right answers on here Steve.
Take your knife out of the RSOC for once ,was it really a contest.

Dingy

Clive....

I am trying to make a point...

Clearly croft was in a class above national day this year...

Point is....

Maybe the people that organise national day need to change there views on what people want or change the people.

I feel so strong about how the rsoc is going that i am doing something about it....

We put on the best show of the last 12 months for the RS scene and someone needs to take notes rather than thinking we as members don't know what we are doing.
